Past Continuous (Incomplete/ongoing action): I was eating - Me khaa raha/rahi tha/thi.
(chuka is used for has,had,have only.) ;D

Past indefinite (Completed action): I ate -Mene khaaya
(liya is also used only for has,had,have)+o(

Conditional: I might eat/I would eat - [me khaa leta (shaid)/ me khaa skta.]

:omg:

Command: Eat/Please eat - Khaalo /
Khao/ Khaayiye (or Khaa lijiye to be polite?)
(1).Commanding to small one : khao... 2).the word is kha Lijye.);D

childhood is evergreen memory. grammar classes looked so horrible in childhood :(
learning definitions of proper noun. common noun its type and then its type onwards. :D

ma bap ki baree mistake hain kai wo jab amreeka jatain hain to wo apni bacho si english mai batain karna shuroo kardaitain hain. iski do (2) negative consequences hotain hain. aik: bachi urdo naheen seekti hain. Doosra or wo pahli si bhi batar: bacho ki english accent kharab ho jati hain (agar ma bap native english speakers nahin hotain.) to ma bab, please agar ap native english speakers naheen hai to apni bacho ki sat apni quomi zaban mai batay karay. shukriya
 
Well, I'm a Guji Indian born in the UK, and I can kinda speak Hindi and Urdu and know the differences between the two.

I learnt from watching bollywood movies at a young age lol... funny thing is, I pick up languages this way. I love world cinema. Especially Kung Fu flicks. But that's offtopic.

Agar kisi ko buraa laga toh yeh post ko report karo. :D
 
lol. ek bat bht ajeeb hai. Urdu was Pakistan's national language also discovered by a pakistani. But now-a-days urdu is recognized as the name "Hindi" and taken as language of india all over the world,because of the hindi movies that are all in urdu language. :) rather these two languages i.e hindi and urdu are quite different ones. :heated:
 
how is this off topic, i just wanted to know why i should try to improve my urdu.
Here check this out:
shukriya writer, apki advice bohth ucha ta? lol, i tried to say thanks writer, your advice was great.
I'm not too good with male/female grammar, but insha allah, ill improve on this thread

Well the two languages have a common ancestor in "khari boli", and only very recently divulged into the two registers as they are known today. Is it quite sad however, that the land from which Urdu came (India) does not give as much importance (at least from a government level) as is due. It is places like Delhi, Lucknow and Hyderabad where Urdu reached dizzying heights.

Urdu hai jiska naam ham hi jaante hai daagh. Saare jahaan meiN dhoom, hamaari zubaan ki hai.

Wow this thread really took off since I left. I had to study for a test last week, which is why I've been absent.
Anyway now that I'm back, let's see if I have mastered Lesson 2 by using a different verb (To Be - Hona) and a different subject (It/He/She/They - Wo):

Present: He is - Wo hai [add nasalization for they (hain)]
Past incomplete: He was being - Wo ho raha tha
Past complete: He was - Wo hua, Wo tha, or both Wo hua tha (I think maybe I switched the tha/hua - which one is past incomplete/complete - perhaps someone can explain the difference - Wo doctor tha {He was a doctor}, Wo doctor hua {He was a doctor?})
Conditional: He would be - Wo hojaiga - Wo ho leta (Can someone clarify the use of leta)
Far future: He will be - Wo hoga
Near future: He is about to be - Wo hone waala hai
Command: Be (like, be happy) - Ho (khush ho)
Question: Are/Will you become? - Kya tum ho/hoge?

Again thanks to Sister Hidayat for offering to help. If anyone else has any corrections feel free to help.
 
:sl:

I myself am (slowly) learning to speak Hindi.

I still cannot read any of the letters though... :hmm:
